Wed, 25 Jul 2012 15:25:09 +0000foxyrider4013979@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>Cheers guys - The super glue didn't stick to the tyre much (yes I did clean it really well) and then gave way when I inflated.</p>
<p>b r - The instructions say put the super glue between the tyre and patch - It really didn't work as the super glue went brittle and then cracked and teh patch really did not want to stick - normal puncture repair worked better IME. But Thanks for the tip - I'll put a bit on the outside <img src="http://singletrackworld.com/forum/my-plugins/bbcode-buttons/default/icon_smile.gif" title=":)" class="bb_smilies" alt=""/> </p>Northwind on "Tubeless tyre repair?"http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/tubeless-tyre-repair-2#post-4013968

<p>Never had a problem.</p>
<p>If I get a big hole I use a normal patch on the inside and then add Superglue on the outside once at home.

Wed, 25 Jul 2012 12:34:29 +0000foxyrider4013232@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>Well don't get the newer version of the Weltite internal kit - 6 small patches and 1 tube of useless super glue! I ended us using Vucanising solution, wheel milk and one of the patches in the end - Superglue is a stupid idea - it doesn't like water for a start!

<p>I've used the internal patches from weldtite recently, and in the past. They work really well, make sure to let the glue dry and go tacky before applying the patch though.</p>
<p>Cheers</p>

Mon, 23 Jul 2012 09:01:33 +0000foxyrider4005200@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>I have repaired my tubeless tyres in the past with tread tears/slices with the Weldtite external kit and had worked well but this time I have a side wall abrasion letting air out - it hasn't sliced through the webbing really - Anyone used the Weltite inside kit - presumably come with textile reinforced patches?</p>
